SK Hynix plans to pay employees 60% of their bonuses in the form of company stock under a preliminary agreement, according to multiple reports citing a source. The proposal would shift a portion of bonus compensation away from cash and into shares.
The reports, attributed to Reuters and repeated by other outlets, describe the arrangement as a preliminary deal, implying it may still be subject to final approval and implementation details. The sources do not provide further specifics in the provided text, such as the bonus period covered, how shares would be valued, or whether there are any lock-up or vesting terms.
While all outlets agree on the key figure—60% paid in company stock—their framing differs slightly based on their wording and attribution. Seeking Alpha references the plan as reported, CNA emphasizes that it is “under” a preliminary deal, and Investing.com explicitly links the information to Reuters’ reporting. None of the provided summaries mention disputes or alternative terms.
